unfurnished, and they are creates tens of thousands good exporting jobs here in the united states, rather than exporting overseas. >> stephanie: you guys must be the thesaurus for different ways to say liar. when you get to specifics, you don't know which to use. this is what the romney campaign does is just kind of insert something that is not true. >> yeah, repeatedly. >> stephanie: yeah. so and obviously -- i don't know if you read the piece in "politico," but the headline is experts fan foreign policy speech. >> yeah, the interesting thing here, this is the seventh time romney has tried articulating a foreign policy in this campaign

and pretty much every time he does it it is this vacuous approach. he seemed stuck in 1950 or so, and he gets panned not just by democrats, he gets panned by republicans. mitt romney can't figure out which side of the debate to come down on like you saw in his speech yesterday and the six attempts before that. the guy doesn't understand the world as it exists today. >> stephanie: right. well, yeah i think madeline albright referred to him calling russia the number one foe. he said in europe where putin's russia cast a long shadow over

american policy. madeline said of the various weird things that romney said his position on russia is truly out of date. >> yeah, those parts of the speech were from the height of the cold war, and apparently nobody told romney that the century changed. [ laughter ] >> stephanie: but as usual, and this goes to foreign and domestic policies you know, there is no specifics. again madeline albright said i just find him very shallow. i'm a professor if one of my students turned that in he would get a c because he gave absolutely no specifics. >> yeah it's a vacuous set of talking points. it's not even -- the dull phrase that you complain in poetry and

govern in prose, it's not even particularly good poetry and when it comes to national security, the prose cost people lives if you do it wrong. and we have seen that over the last decade, quite frankly of our history, and he just comes up real short on the commander in chief test. he repeatedly tries taking the test, right? and he can't -- he can't muster anything better than a c from madeline albright. >> stephanie: yeah, and he is having the same problem as he is having on the domestic issues on issue after issue, we has to do a complete reversal. on the stage are rick santorum, one of the things have to do with our ongoing foreign aid commitments, i agree with rick perry, you have to start with

zero. and he reversed that point yesterday. >> yeah, consistency is not a strong point for governor romney. when he talked about the middle east it almost sounded like he was pining for gadhafi, and it would have been nice that the arab spring would have never started. that and it looks like he is itching for another war. it's not clear if he wants it in syria or iran but to the extent he had any specifics, it was what the world is missing is more wars. i don't think that's where the american people are or where this president is, so the lack of details and the lack of clarity about where he wants to take the world and how he understands it and the consistency thing he pointed

out. >> stephanie: yeah and dan, as you brought up the experts are saying afghanistan was largely a punt. and he said in this old conflict as with every challenge we face in the middle east only a new president is going to be able to start anew. >> i guess starting anew for him is doing nothing about it and kicking the can down the road. his whole campaign seems to be predicated that the american people have amnesia, and he is shameless about it. the debate performance was based on massive amnesia, that nobody would remember he actually is for a $5 trillion tax cut for the wealthiest before he reported to be against it during the debate. and the same on foreign aid and a number of other things.

time and time again particularly over the last ten days, this is a guy that wants to bend reality to support his political interests. >> at the moment though. he believes he is telling the truth. it's like he is the one with amnesia. >> that's right. >> stephanie: dan it seems like there are four key areas where his foreign policy is strong and that's where it is exactly the same as the president. afghanistan, syria, iran, free trade, didn't he essentially say the same thing that the president is doing? >> yes, but he criticized it first. >> stephanie: right. iran is a classic. he repeatedly says he is not doing enough. and then he said he would impose sanctions. he says that we would leave all options on the table.

the president of the united states has left all options on the table, and he might as well be reading our talk points on that, except his starting premise is to say we are doing everything wrong, and then he says he would do the same thing. >> stephanie: we keep saying he said the same thing, but he did this with his hands. on syria, the obama administration has approved assistance of rebels through friendly arab states. >> right. >> stephanie: it is incredible right? >> it is. it was a little disturbing his connection between iraq and syria. the bush war of choice with iraq and romney's language he used yesterday to lift that to the freedom agenda if you will. it really begs the question of is that all he wants to do

which is what we're already doing, or is there something behind that? >> stephanie: right. >> and there's a total lack of detail behind his kind of top-line messages on these issues. >> stephanie: right afghanistan romney he will pursue a real end to security forces by the end of 2014. >> yes. >> stephanie: which is exactly what the president has said -- >> almost verbatim yes. >> stephanie: was it sununu -- which surrogate said the president didn't kill bin laden fast enough. >> yeah. when they are not denying that the president signed free trade agreements, they try making that same argument, well, he didn't

do it fast enough. again, governing is a little more complicated than that. they have a hard time with the truth because they are very bent on presenting this picture of unreality in hopes that the american people will swallow it. >> stephanie: romney is like thank god we're in this car, because i rescued the auto industry. and it's like no, you didn't. dan thank you for joining us. >> thank you. >> stephanie: he is in charge of the western hemisphere. just do it. >> yeah, do what he says. >> stephanie: do it. right back on the "stephanie miller show." >> the place where dreams come true. >> announcer: it's the "stephanie miller show." ♪

>> no. >> stephanie: bah of the pew poll. >> no. i mean, yeah if you are a woman and you made some sort of judgment based on the debate you weren't paying at attention or you don't deserve to vote. >> stephanie: and you are not helping. >> you are not helping. because the poll advertise that romney/ryan would put in place would be really detrimental. they are the party of todd akin and the legitimate rape natural body rejection -- it's absurd. >> stephanie: yeah, again, i read the polling earlier, a lot of it is a little bit all over the place. clearly it is tight and the debate did not help, but this is one they are talking about party id, because it is out of whack with all of the other ones. >> yeah i do think what happened was maybe they went in and polled a bunch of people in the days after the debate and

the new jobs numbers came out and that pushes it back into the president's favor a little bit. we have so many polls, and it's really difficult day-to-day to tell what is the most trustworthy, and what isn't. and if you take a look at some of the swing state polls, and where the president is consistently leading and demographics, it just doesn't seem like this one poll -- it just doesn't make sense. >> stephanie: do you think the president is going to have a chance to correct all of these -- there's no other way to say it -- blatant lies. him saying preexisting conditions are covered in my plan, and they are absolutely are not. big gaps and by big gaps that

means it is non-existent. >> i saw an interview this morning where senator durbin thought the president was caught off guard. but i do think to some extent mitt romney came out with such blatant lies and did such a complete 180 from everything he said on the campaign trial that i'm not sure the president was entirely sure how to address what came out, and when he said no, i'm not going to cut $5 trillion, it's like yeah you are, and i think the president was caught a little off guard. >> stephanie: yeah. >> do you want to talk? >> stephanie: yes, i do. [ laughter ] >> stephanie: if you don't mind -- >> it's not like your name is on the show or anything. >> stephanie: by the way we're like this in person to. >> i will say we missed a day of

chatting on the phone yesterday and it was really hard. >> stephanie: i know. that's true we miss a day -- okay. this paragraph sums it all up. mitt romney says he has a plan to help people with preexisting conditions get medical coverage but there is a catch, you basically have to be covered in the first place. >> yeah, it's the law that clinton signed in '96, and it's the kind of thing where we get continuation of cobra, you can continue to have coverage from a group plan and all of that when insurance companies are trying to look for that hacking cough you had once in fourth grade as a preexisting condition. you get out into the market and the insurance companies don't want to cover you, so they look

for every possible excuse to not include you, and that's where people have so much trouble. what we need is the solution that will kick in january 1st of 2014, which is that everybody has to be covered regardless of preexisting conditions. >> stephanie: see, jacki schechner helper health care advocate, and when you talk about hacking coughs in fourth grade, i bet ya road flair mary had a hacking cough in fourth grade. >> she started with those candy cigarettes. >> stephanie: yeah. i'm embarrassed to admit this but i asked if there was any tape of my dad debating hubert humpfy in 1964 --

president felt like it was too sort of eighth grade, because mitt romney was just saying huh-uh. >> and obama was also following the rules in limiting the time that he was going to speak. romney just railroaded -- >> stephanie: it's not obama's style to say yes, you do nanny, nanny, boo boo. the wisconsin republican running against the awesome and rocking tammy baldwin who is going to kick his ass, he forgot how many homes he had. three he stated confidently.
